"Regulators had alleged that Tesla overstated the capabilities of its driver-assist systems, which were branded as Autopilot and Full Self-Driving. A potential 30-day suspension of vehicle sales in California was on the table if Tesla had failed to comply. On Tuesday, however, the DMV stated that Tesla had met the requirements to avoid that penalty, though it did not provide detailed specifics about the changes that were made."
"From its naming, FSD (Supervised) clearly emphasizes that the system, despite its advanced features, still requires driver attention. Following reports of a potential sales ban in California, Tesla clarified the matter on X, stating that the issue "was a 'consumer protection' order about the use of the term 'Autopilot' in a case where not one single customer came forward to say there's a problem." Tesla also noted that "Sales in California will continue uninterrupted.""
California's Department of Motor Vehicles confirmed that Tesla took corrective action and has come into compliance with requirements regarding the marketing of its automated-driving features. Regulators had alleged Tesla overstated the capabilities of Autopilot and Full Self-Driving and had given the company 90 days to address those concerns, with a potential 30-day sales suspension if Tesla failed to comply. The DMV stated Tesla met the requirements and avoided the suspension but did not provide detailed specifics about the corrective changes. Tesla discontinued its standalone Autopilot product and increased marketing of Full Self Driving (Supervised), which emphasizes continued driver attention.
